The Remove The Heart mission of Voeld is the worst goddamn piece of fucked up shit mission in the game.
It's extremely long, and hopeless for a level 10 character on insanity, which I finally gave up on. But I have pushed through, with great difficulty, with a level 13 and ushior/piranha kit. What makes it so hard is every time you die, the damn developers put you all the way back to the beginning out in the snow.
So many hours later, I was finally at the last step, go through the door into the hanger. The first time I died. The second time, the door was bugged and wouldn't open, so I had to reload an autosave. When I died the second time, because there are a hell of a lot of Kett in there, I had to go back all the way to the oldest autosave; all the others had a bugged door. Now because I died again, the door won't open at all and there are no more autosaves. I have one manual save that is all the way back to the start of the second half of the mission. So I have to plow through another hour or two of fighting to get back to that fucked up door, with no guarantee it won't fuck up again. And I can't just give up because there is no other way out of the damn room. Unless I just cancel the mission altogether.
This is really a lazy and shitty way to make a game tougher. Pardon my french, but I wasted a lot of damn hours on this one damn mission.

He kept getting reset from dying, which would be because of insanity. But then the doors glitched out multiple times and he had to keep restarting the mission after finishing it because the bloody doors wouldn't open. I would call that pretty screwed up for him.

It's also possible the doors won't open because of a stuck enemy. Look around for one and see if you can jar it loose enough to kill.

I can empathize with an issue on such a long mission, but I have to say it's an enjoyable mission from my perspective. One additional auto-save point would have been nice, but there it is...

I got really frustrated on the Kett Base in Eos and eventually just saved it for later after getting sync killed by the Invictor and being taken back to the front of the Base. I was trying to be crafty and let the enemies work their way towards me through the door since I guess I was under leveled for the place, but no such luck. It was my first playthrough and the lack of manual saves and useful auto saves are pretty annoying in these places. I also learned to keep my distance from ascendants the hard way. I guess Voeld's Kett Base is on some kind of timer after starting though Yeah, you have my sympathies there.

Voeld's base isn't on a timer. I just did it and I've already done the vault on Kadara and Elaaden, found the asari and turian ark, and am about to embark on Hunting the Archon. I saved the base for late, because there are a bunch of little quests on Voeld that glitch out if you take out the base first.

Oh, I remember reading from someone that after accepting/starting the mission that there is a timer. The Angara hinted as much when she said the passcode to enter was going to change *shrug*

I think it might have been the OP's other post (unless someone else has been stuck in the same place with a similar problem recently). I think there's only one or two missions that have timers on them, and they literally have timers on them...on the screen. Anything else isn't restricted by time. Like I said, I've gotten the Hunting the Archon mission, which is what, halfway or 1/3 of the way into the game? Gotten all of the planets and done their vaults already, plus lots of scanning and fetching, and just finished Voeld literally while I was typing my last post.
But there are a lot of bugs if you take out the kett bases too soon, so be careful with that.
Edit: Ohhh, unless you mean you actually go to the base and start your attack? There might be a time limit (i.e. you have to complete it all at once) if you've actually gone into the cave and started shooting.

One of the better missions in terms of challenge until they removed the enemy scaling in the recent patch. I'd die at least 2-3x prior to the patch, now you just mow through the enemies...combat has really been neutered. I could agree to it using an extra save point though as it was kind of a pain to have to replay long chunks of the mission.

Edit: Ohhh, unless you mean you actually go to the base and start your attack? There might be a time limit (i.e. you have to complete it all at once) if you've actually gone into the cave and started shooting. No, I thought after receiving the passcode thing to enter it would start some kind of timer. The Angara lady seemed so urgent that it was going to change and you needed to break in ASAP, so I just... assumed. I do remember reading from someone else about a timer. My mistake. It is nice to know I can do other stuff and not worry about it right away, though. I know generally RPG rules let you do anything whenever despite any "urgency" the NPCs give to it, but there are always those exceptions (e.g. Grissom Academy).

Change game difficulty if you can ?
I haven't tried to do this myself yet. I would look into using armor and weapon upgrades upgrades this might help you out. I thought it was an easy mission.

A Tempest is a storm so Riders on the Storm loosely translates to Ryders on the Tempest.

Usually I do both Kett bases around level 40
